Did you try disabling all plugins and addons?

Hi, I think I did that - I disabled the plugins in the iceweasel settings !<br>
<br>
Some more information on what I did on this machine:<br>
<br>
1) Before, there was a "i386" 32bit-Debian Wheezy installed on this machine, but I had to install the "amd64" 64-bit wheezy. The "/home" drive is on a seperate harddisk.<br>
--> I did install the 64-bit wheezy on the machine<br>
--> then I mounted the existing "/home" folder (from the external harddrive, from the previously 32-Bit system) again under "/home"<br>
--> I suspected that there might be some 32-Bit settings in my "/home/.mozilla" folder causing the freeze<br>
<br>
2) I moved the "/.mozilla" folder to "./mozilla_old"<br>
--> then I completly purged "iceweasel" with configuration files<br>
--> then I installed "iceweasel" again (from the amd64 repos of course)<br>
--> but it still freezes my computer on "<a href="http://www.bild.de">www.bild.de</a>"<br>
<br>
3) The plugins installed (but deactivated in iceweasel) are:<br>
- gnome-shell-integration<br>
- icedTea-web plugin<br>
- iTunes-application-detector<br>
- shockwave flash<br>
Add-Ons (but deactivated in iceweasel):<br>
-adblock plus 2.1<br>
Language pack (deactivated in iceweasel):<br>
- german (DE)<br>
<br>
Some questions I have for debugging:<br>
a) Are there settings (for iceweasel or plugins/add-ons) from the previous 32-bit system stored in other folders than "/.mozilla" ?<br>
b )How can I run iceweasel in "gdb" to get a file-dump to do a post-mortem analysis ?<br>
c) Do I need the "iceweasel-dbg" package ? And if yes, how can I do it <br>
d) How can I support you with more information about the issue ?<br>
